Research Interests
Professor Stringer works within the related fields of state-making, noble power structures, religious reform, cultural exchanges, and the construction of regional, national and supra-national identities. He focuses on the developing Scottish and English polities (1100-1300) and, at the regional level, on the world of 'middle Britain' (1100-c.1400). He is currently completing Regesta Regum Scottorum, vol. 3, The Acts of Alexander II, King of Scots, 1214-1249, and co-directs the Leverhulme-funded research programme 'Border Liberties and Loyalties in North-East England in the 13th and 14th Centuries'.
